The Docket heard from a few amped-up DBA members after the September and October front-page articles on the U.S. presidential race. While a cheerful few (from both sides of the aisle) were pleased with the McCain-tilted and Obama-tilted articles written by committee members, a fair share said that The Docket shouldn’t run any political articles, ever. The Docket Committee has declined to deploy any litmus tests, but wants to make clear that we have changed our masthead to reiterate that the authors’ views do not represent the Denver Bar Association, or the writers’ employers, unless stated otherwise. The Docket will continue to encourage members to submit a variety of columns on diverse current topics; and welcomes contrary views! Contact Editor Christine McManus cmcmanus@cobar.org.
